It is with heavy hearts that we share the devastating and sudden loss of our beloved Barry, who tragically lost his life as a result of knife crime at just 35 years old. As a family, we are completely heartbroken and struggling to come to terms with losing someone who meant so much to so many people. We never imagined we would be in a position where we needed to ask for help, and reaching out like this is incredibly difficult for us. Our only wish is to give Barry the beautiful and dignified send-off that he deserves and to celebrate his life surrounded by the people who loved him. Unfortunately, we do not have the financial means to cover the funeral costs on our own, so we are humbly asking for any support that anyone can offer. There is absolutely no pressure to give large amounts—every single donation, no matter how small, will make a difference and will help us honour Barry’s memory. If you are unable to donate, simply sharing this page would also mean the world to us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, support, and for helping us give Barry the farewell he deserves. Barry will be forever loved, forever missed, and forever 35!!
